I spoke to the machine shop a couple weeks ago. Guess I forgot about this thread. Well they said the guy did a top notch surfacing job before the damage was done, they said its utterly retarded how the guy shipped these heads. Not only what happened but the valve gear had no protection. They said a valve could get bent that way. Which reminds me. A couple of the valve seals weren't all the way down, so i poked a flat head in between the spring and pushed them down. Probably not the best idea i've had.
Anyways. As far as the damage goes, they said i could just lightly file the ridge down with a flat file. They said they could jet wash the heads, but if they aren't going to be installed right away to wait till that time. Water could get down in the pockets and start to rust. They also said i could have them machined, but they didn't think it was necessary, the deepest gouge is by a bolt hole, not a water jacket (relief) and that both gouges are outside the fire ring they said, so the gaskets should seal fine as long as i use a permitex. Also they said they've seen a few cases like this, and they doubt that ups will cover the damage do to the poor packaging of the shipper and being that there was no insurance on them.
So i just let it go. Idk im tired of dealing with ****,lol. Plus i had school registration for my daughter and some other stuff to contend with.
